High removal-risk signals
63/100Maintenance and integrity signals that tend to precede a WordPress.org removal. Not an official status, a heads-up to act.
- Long abandoned. No update in 8+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
- Compatibility drift. Tested only up to WordPress 4.9.31, well behind 6.8.

Update activity
How busy the existing users are, measured as downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites. A spike means a new release everyone's pulling; a long, slow decline means an aging user base that updates less.
Release cadence
No release in a yearHow often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Estimated value
What this plugin might earn a year, and what it might sell for. Modeled from public signals; we don't see anyone's books.
Est. annual revenue
Est. acquisition value
No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from.

I was shocked to find out this fact. He created a whole seperate file just to show you a commercial notice in WordPress dashboard, without an indicate of where it came from. I searched this notice inside all my plugins and I found out that it came from this one. Be aware!

This plugin does the job very well and saves a lot of times, especially copying lorem ipsum menu item while developping a website. Thanks for this. Used with WP 4.7.3 without issues, so I’d say compatible up to this version.

Thanks for the plugin, it really saves a lot of time. There is a minor bug, though: all duplicates come with “open in a new window” checked by default. Note to users: In case you have a menu with numerous entries and you do not immediately see your newly duplicated item, just note that it will be at the bottom of the list as the last child of its parent.
